They haven't been playing together for about 4 games know. Yeah I agree they have played very well together, just like to see what Okposo could bring, he has been playing very well, maybe he got his touch back, see what he could do with a few more chances

Well once we are back to being healthy. I agree Girgs was with Eichel and they have moved around

Once skinner and VO are back. I would 100% put them back together

What the hell do you care, you’ll spell it wrong anyways.

even luke doesn't care

Oh it will probably happen and they are solid, just would like to see VO Eichel Okposo together and see what they can do.

Yeah I understand they probably won't do it with Rhino, but that's what I think to help this team, and I would actually move Okposo up with Eichel. Ever since he came back from his concussion it seems to have knocked something loose, he is skating very well and he works the boards better then anybody on the team.
- Buff36

He cant keep up with Eichel, especially for 20 minutes a night.

The log line all have the same speed physically and mentally. It works

-Good egg salad is solid. But ive had the displeasure of having some bad ones over the years that Im kinda on hiatus with that.

-Worst defender on the panthers, man the tables turned bad there for him.

-Beady?

Is George McPhee on that good good again ?

I guess it was only a matter of time before he did something stupid.

welcome aboard Michael, very insightful first writeup and looking forward to more from ya. cheers

Sounds like it was the new(ish) GM's idea, not McPhee's idea

They tried that for about a period when Olofsson got hurt. It just doesn't work. Even pre-concussion, it didn't work. It's not that easy to play with Jack. A lot of guys have gotten short looks over the years.

What a Richard
what could he talk about
- hubie

GREAT interview. It'll probably be up on WGR's site and you all should listen to it. Carcillo talks about concussion issues and how he's leading the charge in the Steve Montidor trial that's coming up. He's going to expose all the doctors and teams that lied to the players about concussions. Again, great interview. We all hated that guy, but after listening to him talk about his concussion issues and how he and many NHL-ers were lied to, you're going to root for the guy. That interview almost brought me to tears. Powerful stuff.

I think he could, he is faster than Rhino and take away PP time and Okposo and Rhino are off 2 or 3 shifts time wise. Maybe Okposo can't but what can it hurt right know.

Sorry if they did, don't remember that

How is Garth going to feel about a new (premium) blogger coming in and stealing his
thunder?

Solid post, Welcome!
I hope you're around more often than Garf, he seems to be neither here nor there lately.

I beg to differ on that

Ugh Carcillo is going to be on WGR at 5


Frank that guy
- Stripes77

Hes a great inspiration to people around the world you should listen to his message to be honest

Sorry if they did, don't remember that
- Buff36

It was easy to miss. Not sure it lasted much more than a period, but they tried Sam on the 2nd line and Okposo on the 1st.

I beg to differ on that

Agree with you on that.

Can the Sabres dads give in between pep talks to their sons during the next couple games?

Zemgus "spinorama while falling" Girgensons is a better skater?

Everyone has their opinions, but yes I think Girgs is a better skater

He can't even stay upright. He recently hurt himself on a breakaway goal because he ran into the boards unassisted while spinning and falling

My source is a rather distant one, friend of a friend of a friend type stuff, so make of this what you will:
2 weeks ago I was hearing Galchenyuk was a good possibility. Last week interest in Toffoli on the rise. This week back on the Gally train. They know the guy has talent, just needs the right situation. Talented enough to be a 2nd line center in this league. Pens will trade him for peanuts right now. Not sure if they will take olives instead.
- Sir Tindoom

If Gally would really come cheap,
I don’t see the harm in taking a shot
